in case you missed it on july 4th.....


At week 37, your pregnancy is considered full term, meaning baby is likely to thrive after birth. Baby spends these last weeks in preparation for the outside world… meaning careful refinement of the blink, suck, inhale and exhale. Meconium, which you’ll probably find in the first diaper, is accumulating in the intestines. If (okay, as) you worry about giving birth, consider what it’s like for the little one. During the journey out of your womb, baby will produce more stress hormones than any other time in life.

yes, i seriously have a watermelon in my body! lord help me!

the day i started blogging

this is what i wrote:

my intro

so i am giving this blog thing a try. i have a lot to say most of the time so why not just get it out here! i have somewhat of a crazy life. as much as i try to minimize my past, i have been through some experiences that have made me a bit more sarcastic, blunt, and just plain realistic (although i am an idealist at heart). overall, i try to have a positive outlook on life. i am a lot to handle. you either love me or you hate me. i do not believe in much grey area- i am a black or white kind of girl. because i am a realist based on life experiences and an idealists at heart, please disregard the million contradictions i will make in regards to any possible subjects introduced in this blog.

here are the "daily's" in my life:

i am a strong and independent female but i am not a feminist.

i am a wife.

i am a mother. some people like to say that i am not. i like to tell them to fuck off!

i am an optimist.

i am the center of my family. the glue.

i am a teacher.

i am a student.

i am a weight watcher.

i am a scrapbooker.

i am a libra.

i am a catholic.

i am a shitty friend.

i am the luckiest person in the world to have such great friends who put up with me being such a shitty one!

i am a survivor.

i am in constant search of a better me but amazingly proud of the person that i am.

i am what i am.

for now......

do u like me....

i mean, do you really really like me?

the blog update/layout anyways......

p.s.

in just 8 short weeks i will see the most precious little face ever..... i can hardly wait!

if you have the time

pray for my family. we are going through many changes and preparing for the baby, as wonderful as it is, has become quite stressful. i know we will be fine but prayers never hurt anyone, right?

thx!

Showered....

Bucket hosted a wonderful baby shower at her house for me this past weekend. It was really nice! She is so good for me because she makes me snap out of my anto-social self! Had a wonderful time with wonderful people, food, and games! So happy for the people who still put up with me even when i drop off the face of the earth!

Then today, my partner teacher Nerina, planned a surprise baby shower with my students. They kept it a secret for weeks. Each student wrote me a poem and a letter. The presented them and gave me gifts. Such a wonderful day. I cannot believe how wonderful my students are. They have very little, yet they still give to me. I have the best job in the world.

My mom and other family members bought me my stroller and my carseat and I LOVE IT!
THANKS BUCKET! I LOVE YOU TO PIECES~ SORRY I AM SUCH A PAIN IN THE BUTT!
